Guess i got super lucky

So as ive shared before i bought an 03 wrx with a decent build list including a fully built motor well it was running very very poorly well after removal and inspection of the motor come to find out the passenger side intake cam had aheared off the dowl pin. Somehow by the grace of god it didnt make the valves come into contact with the pistons and everything is perfectly fine in the motor. Lucky me. Cheap and easy fix for a car i paid 2000$ for. Now to get the motor back in the car and get it retuned because i dont onow who tuned and i dont know if can trust them like i trust mig ๐Ÿ˜‚ also based on the build list i added (keep in mind whoever typed out the list cant type because they are 1000cc injectors) what HP number should it be goodโ€ฆ

Is this a bad idea??

Whats up everyone? I have an event coming up that is going to require a long drive to get there (taking kids with me) and isn't going to require that my car be making max power... im considering pulling my Tomei catback off and putting the stock catback in its place for the weekend to cut down on noise. Am I going to have issues/ can it make the tune not work properly? I realize im likely pushing if not exceeding the limit of the stock exhaust. Wouldn't be permanent, just a weekend thing to make the drive a bit more pleasant.


Current setup is:

2016 sti- stock block/heads

Plm ELH, up-pipe+44mm ewg, and catted DP

TOMEI expreme Ti

8cm Dom 1.5 with g30-660 wheels

That chop is nasty

Injector and turbo pairing.

So ive got a 2005 wrx and i happened across a great deal on a set of id725 injectors and a vf48 turbo for free. My car currently has a stock turbo and stock injectors in it, but it does have a bigger process west top mount with silicone turbo inlet and intercooler pipe as well as a 3 port bcs. And im just wondering with all my mods how well would the id725s and the vf48 get along

Howโ€™s the turbo condition? Any shaft play or fluid leaks? If the injectors are used, how many miles?
